About Palaw with lamb

Palaw with Lamb is a traditional dish rooted in Afghan cuisine, celebrated for its balance of savory flavors and aromatic spices. This hearty meal features basmati rice cooked with tender lamb, onions, garlic, and a blend of spices such as cumin, coriander, and cardamom, often enriched with raisins and slivered almonds for added texture and sweetness. Packed with protein from the lamb and complex carbohydrates from the rice, the dish provides lasting energy and satiety. Lamb is a rich source of essential nutrients, including iron, zinc, and vitamin B12, supporting muscle function and overall health. However, the dish can be high in saturated fats depending on the cut of lamb used and the preparation method. Opting for lean cuts and moderate portions can enhance its nutritional profile. Palaw with Lamb is a delicious representation of Afghan culinary traditions, ideal for special occasions or comforting family meals.
